Anita Hassanandani tied the knot this year in October, is making a comeback on TV after a gap of two years with new show Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. “I haven’t taken a break after marriage. Just two days after my marriage I was in Chandigarh promoting my Punjabi film. All this has become possible because of my supportive husband. In fact, I will work more now. He is the one who always tell me to call back if I miss a call from work when I am at home. He is really pushy about my work,” Anita said.

In the Star Plus’s soap opera, Anita will be seen in a grey role of an ex-wife for the first time. “It is an exciting role because as a performer the role was challenging for me. I have never done something of this sort. It’s slightly grey and selfish character. It is not an out-ant-out negative character. But after this role I am prepared for hate mails from my fans,” she said.

The show is based on author Manju Kapur’s fifth novel Custody and is produced by Ekta Kapoor. Having started her career as a protagonist in Ekta’s show Kavyanjali, Anita made her mark on small screen with her brilliant performances in TV honcho’s other shows Kayamath, Kya Dill Mein Hai among others.

“Ekta is known for taking out the best in me. I have always trusted her as per as my career is concerned. Working with Ekta is like home. When Ekta offered me Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, I asked her whether she is sure about it or not. She is like ‘definitely you can’. This character is absolutely opposite to what I have done in the past. From the day one I was in Ekta’s mind for this show,” she said.

But for the actor, playing the character was a challenge for her because it was difficult to balance between being nasty and negative. “It is difficult to portray grey characters because there is a very thin line between being nasty and slightly negative. This role is a change for me because it will give me a new image. As an actor you want to do something which audience don’t expect from you,” she said.

Nothing has changed on the sets for Anita after two years. “When I came back to the sets, I felt I know everybody but only their positions have changed. It was a good feeling working again with Balaji telefilm. Everything has fallen into place very nicely.”

Anita will be next seen in Ekta Kapoor‘s production venture Ragini MMS 2, where she will be portraying a gothic chic in the multi-starrer horror film.

Doesn’t she make a beautiful south Indian bride?

Anita Hassanandani, who shot to fame with Ekta Kapoor’s Kavyanjali, has tied the knot with Rohit Reddy today in a south Indian style wedding. We hear her wedding was a four-day affair which included the sangeet, mehendi and the haldi ceremonies followed by the big fat shaadi. All the three functions where held in Goa and her friends from the industry attended the event. While we don’t know exactly about the celebrity guest list, we caught hold of few pictures from her grand shaadi.

In one of the pictures, the babe is posing with Shevta Salve and Meghna Naidu, her friends from tellyland. And we totally love Anita in the pink-green saree. There is another picture in which Bollywood actor Anjana Sukhani is accompanying the lovely couple. But our absolute favourite is the one where the deeply-in-love duo has donned the serene white colour. While Anita looks angelic, Rohit is all dapper in the white shirt. Lastly, the shaadi wala picture is a perfect kodak moment and Anita’s million dollar smile says it all.

They say pictures say a thousand words and in this case they say more than that, wethinks. Check out the pictures and you’ll know what we mean!

Bollywood has been making a beeline for television and the latest to join the bandwagon is Dimple Kapadia – so we hear. Rumour is that Ms Kapadia is in talks for a daily soap, which will be aired on Colors. The actor will be playing a successful business woman on the show. We tried confirming the story but the channel is not yet ready to validate anything. “We still haven’t got a confirmed yes from our clients. A publication has done this story, but we are not sure yet. We will let you know as and when we get any information on this topic,” said a spokesperson.

So guess the makers are still negotiating the deal with Ms Kapadia. Wethinks it would be interesting to see Dimple on the small screen; remember in 2005 veteran actor Amrita Singh had also made her debut on TV in Ekta Kapoor’s Kavyanjali? The serial ran for a year and was ranked seven among Star Plus’ popular shows.

While we aren’t sure why Dimple is attempting TV, it’s definitely not a wrong move when everyone is vying to get some small screen time. We just hope that the actor doesn’t get stereotyped as a typical saas. We obviously wouldn’t want that to happen, no?

http://www.bollywoodlife.com/news-gossip/have-ekta-kapoor-and-anita-hassanandani-patched-up/#commentsTue, 15 Jan 2013 12:35:51 +0000http://www.bollywoodlife.com/?p=180655The Kavyanjali actor seems to be back in Ekta’s good books, as she has been roped in to star opposite Sunny Leone in Ragini MMS 2

Anita Hassanandani has been away from television for quite some time now and will be seen making a comeback with Ragini MMS 2 opposite Sunny Leone, and the reasons for that is none other than the television czarina Ekta Kapoor.

Ekta and Anita had a falling out for various reasons, one of them being Ekta’s growing closeness to her Kasamh Se star Prachi Desai. Ekta even cast Prachi in a plum role in her movie Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai, and Anita was relegated to the sidelines, content with doing smaller roles on television and building a career in films down South. But before this fallout, Anita was allegedly quite close to Ekta and her family, and they both shared a rather close bond. This is when Anita ruled the small screen and Ekta yet had to foray into producing movies. But the TV serials that Ekta made always had a special role for Anita. But once Prachi entered the scene, Anita was sidelined. And Ekta promoted Prachi with a renewed fervour, even saying that Prachi was like a family member! Yet, this relation too was short-lived as Prachi accused Ekta of not casting her in the films that the latter produced, namely Shor in the City, and Prachi was promptly shown the exit door.

And now it seems that Ekta has again got back with Anita, whom she had even rechristened Natasha earlier. Anita has been chosen for a plum role in Ragini MMS 2 opposite Sunny Leone. Well, good for Anita wethinks, as she gets yet another shot at Hindi movies. Also, Prachi had better watch out, since it’s not too good for an actor to be in the TV czarina’s bad books, as she is known to be vengeful! So let’s see now, how long Ekta maintains her relation with Anita, and hope another pretty young thing doesn’t attract Ekta’s roving eye. Wink wink!
